Text of My Speech

I am not the sweetest person you"ll ever meet, or the meanest. I've never been the best dancer, singer, or actress but I'm sure to give you a laugh. I'm not the most eco-friendly girl you know, but if you ever need someone to plant a tree with, I'll be there. I might not learn to stop procrastinating, but I will always try my best with everything I do.

My name is Jessica A, and I am a freshman in high school, Class of 2014! Like everyone at this school, I am really determined to get all A's and B's. Also I want to go to college. In my family everyone has either gone to college or is about to apply. But, for freshman year I have goals that are going to help me in the long run. For example, I'm not the best at math, it confuses me. I guess you can say me and numbers have a love/hate relationship. BUT this year I will have a positive attitude and totally ace it! Reading is a nightmare to me. I haven't quite figured out how I could somewhat learn to enjoy it, sadly I can not guarantee I will genuinely like it.

My family. Sometimes I wonder how I would function without them (most likely I probably wouldn't.) I have three sisters and one brother. Their names are Ahmed 27; Haidi, 26; Nancy, 24; and Liza, 21. Also i have beautiful, hardworking, and brave parents. With all these adults around you tend to feel a little pressure sometimes. For me I would consider my family ambitious, outgoing, loud, respectful (sometimes), and just plain weird. There are supporting and loving when times are difficult and when you feel like you just can't go on. I know that when I'm older, I will be a strong, successful woman all because of them.

Overall you will always have dreams and wishes. Our dreams will only stay dreams until we take action and make it reality. So if you see me around Foothill, don't hesitate to say,"Hi!" I always enjoy making new friends. See you soon!
